LUXURY CAPITALS OF CANADA BY RAIL - 9 NIGHTS FROM £2,495

FOUR CITY BREAKS IN ONE

TRAVEL IN BUSINESS CLASS ON CANADA'S VIA RAIL

STAY IN LUXURY FAIRMONT HOTELS EN ROUTE

All aboard for a first-class Canadian adventure – where stylish train travel meets a city-hopping itinerary packed with charm, culture and just the right amount of croissants.
Start your journey in Toronto, a city that knows how to keep things interesting. Browse the shops, zip up the CN Tower for jaw-dropping views, or hop over to Niagara Falls for a splash of the dramatic.

Next stop: Ottawa – Canada’s laid-back capital with a knack for mixing politics with pretty. Wander along the UNESCO-listed Rideau Canal or hop on a bike and explore the city on two wheels.

Then it’s off to Montreal, a city that practically lives for good food and great festivals. From buzzing markets and world-class restaurants to museums, music and a nightlife scene that never clocks off – this is where French flair meets North American energy.

And finally, step into the storybook streets of Québec City. Cobbled alleys, centuries-old architecture, and enough charm to last a lifetime. You can stroll through the Old Town on a walking tour, take in the sights by bike, or follow your taste buds on a gourmet wander through local artisanal flavours.

Between cities, you’ll travel in comfort aboard VIA Rail in business class – think lounge access, roomy seats, and delicious meals served at your seat. With journeys all under five hours and timed perfectly for daylight views, you’ll never miss a moment of Canada’s stunning scenery.

And when the day’s exploring is done, rest your head in Canada’s iconic 5-star Fairmont hotels – each one oozing elegance and perfectly placed in the heart of the action.

This isn’t just a holiday. It’s a stylish ride through the best of Canada.

LUXURY SEYCHELLES FROM £2,959

Ready to trade the everyday for something altogether more extraordinary?

Welcome to Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa on the beautifully remote Silhouette Island – a luxury retreat that feels worlds away from the usual. With just one resort on the island and the rest of it protected as a national marine park, this is barefoot luxury at its most authentic. Think total tranquillity, five-star comfort and a setting so spectacular it almost doesn’t feel real.

Silhouette is the Seychelles’ third largest island, yet it remains blissfully untouched. Nestled between a powder-white beach and dense tropical forest, the resort is surrounded by one of the richest biodiversity hotspots in the Indian Ocean. You could be sipping your morning coffee as turtles nest on the nearby sands, or spotting rays gliding through the shallows just steps from your villa.

Luxury here goes hand in hand with nature – and the dining is no exception. Your Half Board plan gives you access to a range of elegant restaurants, each offering something deliciously different. From beachfront grills to traditional Seychellois dishes, hand-rolled sushi to fresh Italian favourites, every evening is a new culinary adventure.

Spa treatments are inspired by the island’s natural beauty, snorkelling trips lead you to dazzling coral reefs, and sunset strolls feel like something from a film set.

And with an incredible 30% saving included in this offer, there’s never been a better time to make the dream a reality.
This isn’t just a holiday. It’s your invitation to unwind, indulge and completely disconnect – in style.
